Intel 3945 + cantenna? What kind of connectors are those on the adapter?

So my plight is, I would like to use a pigtail-style yagi cantenna, but I've no idea how to connect them to my Intel 3945 ABG, cos I've NO clue as to what form factor those connectors are.

I assume they're coax of some sort, but what ARE they?

Can this be done? Has anyone had any luck with it?

Nevermind, I found it! Looks like U.Fl connectors, for anyone wondering.

If anyone finds themselves on the same quest as myself, a DIY yagi antenna, you can pick up pigtails from this site here:

Provided you're using an N connector. If not, there are plenty of other pigtails at that site.
